Joe posted 17 points (5-11 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes during Thursday's 110-93 loss to the Bucks.
Joe earned his third start of the season and stepped up on the offensive end while the Thunder were without several key weapons. He's been dialed in from deep lately, where he's knocked down 17 of his last 31 tries (54.8 percent) over his previous four appearances.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Hits for 19 points from bench
Rotowire
Joe produced 19 points (6-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 27 minutes during Monday's 119-110 victory over the Lakers.
Although Cason Wallace continued to start for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdomen), Joe also helped to fill the gap with another strong performance. Joe struggled during a spot start last week against the Spurs, and his swift demotion served as proper motivation for the sixth-year pro. With Jared McCain shooting up the depth chart, Joe will need to keep his production up to preserve his spot in the rotation.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Drops 21 off bench Saturday
Rotowire
Joe provided 21 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, two assists and three steals in 29 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 112-106 loss to the Rockets.
It's the second time in the last three games that Joe has topped 20 points, but both those performances came with the second unit, while he managed just two points in a spot start Wednesday against the Spurs. That was also the only time in the last seven contests that Joe has failed to drain multiple three-pointers, a stretch in which he's averaging 12.4 points, 2.9 threes, 2.4 boards, 1.9 assists and 1.3 steals in 26.1 minutes.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Leading scorer in rout
Rotowire
Joe provided 22 points (8-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and one steal in 23 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 128-92 victory over Orlando.
The sixth-year guard led the Thunder in scoring as he tied his season high in points. Joe has found a groove from beyond the arc of late, and over the last five games he's averaging 12.8 points, 3.4 threes, 1.8 boards, 1.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 23.4 minutes while shooting 42.5 percent from long distance.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Solid showing in victory
Rotowire
Joe totaled 17 points (6-11 FG, 5-10 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 104-95 victory over New Orleans.
This was a strong line for Joe, but he continues to be a hit-or-miss fantasy asset off the Oklahoma City bench. Over his last seven outings, he's averaging 9.9 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.3 three-pointers. He may see a short-term boost in value, however, as Jalen Williams (hamstring) and Ajay Mitchell (abdominals) are currently sidelined.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Coming off bench Sunday
Rotowire
Joe will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Raptors, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Joe made his first start of the season Friday against the Pacers, but he will be slotted back to the bench as the team goes with a larger starting five, starting Jaylin Williams alongside Chet Holmgren.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Drops 16 points in rout
Rotowire
Joe chipped in 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes off the bench during Monday's 136-104 win over the Cavaliers.
The 26-year-old guard saw plenty of extra run in the big win, with the 25 minutes being his biggest workload since Nov. 17. Joe took advantage of the court time to score in double digits for just the second time in 10 January games, although he's drained multiple three-pointers in each of the last five. However, without a more consistent role, Joe's fantasy value is mainly limited to being a DFS dart throw.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Modest production continues
Rotowire
Joe finished with five points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and one rebound in 10 minutes during Wednesday's 129-125 overtime win over Utah.
Joe scored just five points in the loss, having exceeded that amount only once in the past eight games. While he does provide the Thunder with a proven perimeter threat, the fact that the team is so loaded with talent makes him somewhat redundant from time to time. At best, he should be viewed as a potential three-point streaming option.
